"In a polarized world, it`s necessary to read multiple sides to each story. The factual makes that incredibly simple, so we can help stay informed citizens."

"Am very eager to use this app, but it`s glitchy. Articles won`t open. Screen ``bounces`` on one spot and won`t allow scrolling. Overrides phone`s ability to close the app. Hopeful it gets fixed. Thanks!"

"Almost every news article available is from a source rated as moderate left. I have only seen 2 from ``center`` sources and these sources are rated as center-left by every other rating agency. There is no ``no bias`` filter option. You can get the same thing with higher quality writing from WaPo or NYT."

"I really enjoy this app. I have learned so much to broaden and clarify my views. Reading stories from multiple perspectives helps me use critical thinking to arrive at my own conclusion instead of being manipulated. If you get your news from one source or only one perspective it is nearly impossible not to be manipulated. I know I have been in the past. Keep up the excellent work. I think it will only get better from here."

"Left leaning news source, makes sure to give the left media more top stories and keeps them at a higher credibility score. Right leaning news is pushed to the back and overall keeps lower credibility scores. Clear partisanship in the app."

"Love this app. Seeing the biases of publications in clear terms makes you so much more cognizant of how those biases impact you as a reader. I also appreciate the synopses of articles that are usually hidden behind paywalls!"

"In a world inundating with information, The Factual helps to sift through and determine what`s worth it for your limited brain space. It`s algorithmic ratings aren`t perfect, so you are still required to make a judgment as to an article`s veracity, but you can rest assure it`s doing most of the work. You can consider it a privilege to have this app at your fingertips — narrowing the gargantuan. Also, it`s worth noting that no algorithm is perfect. Any app that says otherwise is lying."

"I appreciate being able to check the daily update or a quick scan of important stories, especially ones I may have missed because they`re underreported. The site also provides me with links that get me out of my bubble so I can read about the other side without descending into comments or extremist posts."
